ALINA ANNA KUBERSKA

 

Life Is A Instant

 

she was torn between love

and the desire to run away from it

 

her heart longed for a touch

she did not want to lick the fruit though

but to bite into the pulp

 

a feeling as elusive as a rainbow

she sifted every day

separating the one that had eroded

 

a theater of dreams one of a kind

and longing for something

she could not catch

they kept her sane

 

was she was happy

living in the dark of her own choice

 

 

 

Avender Dreams

 

I was dreaming of lavender hills

- I run barefoot, reveling in the scent

I love dreams written with carefreeness

without the burden of years

and there is no clock measuring the time

a total trip

without energizers

mischievous soul goes mad

violet carpet padded with happiness

and the heart wants to waltz

such dreams are pure joy in the morning

 

 

 

A Cup Of Truth

 

the dusty piano was standing in the corner

dying quietly

 

once every keystroke

filled the heart with music

 

now it decorates the living room

of the people with a wooden ear

 

pretends to be an imaginary ancestor
